"Too often in this country, government at all levels leans on civil service employees," he said "I
intend to continue to give public

drew heavy applause from the
floor. He pointed out that instead
of achieving only one beneficial
program each year from the state,
civil service has gained several

Let's Keep the Retirement
System Intact
(This column was guest-written by State Comptroller Arthur
Levitt at the request of Mr. Herzstein. Previous guest writers here
included State Attorney General Louis J. Lefkowitz. — Ed.)
THE N E W Y O R K STATE Employees Retirement System now
has a membership of over 210,000 state and municipal employees and
assets of over one and a half billion dollars. It is not surprising that
would-be reorganizers of State government would try to transfer
from the Comptroller's jurisdiction a successful operation of thia
size and significance. The recent Ronan report is no exception. The
report recommends that the administration of the Retirement System
be transferred to a new Office of Civil Service and that the management of the fund.s be transferred to a new Department of Finance.
IN M Y F I G H T to Stop this dismemberment of your Retirement
System I have been heartened by support from t.11 over the State,
Including many members of the Civil Service Employees Association.
I am glad to have this opportunity, through Harold Herzstein's
column, to detail the reasons why the recommendation -should not
be adopted.
O R I G I N A L L Y THE R E T I R E M E N T S Y S T E M was placed under
the trusteeship of the Comptroller as the chief fiscal officer of the
State. It was realized that he was a separately elected official, responsible only to the people and to their representatives in the
Legi.slature. It was very carefully determined that the Retirement
System should not be handed over as an extra duty to some appointive
head of an executive department. It deserved, as far as possible, an
independent status under a direct trusteeship.
I N ITS 40 Y E A R S of operation, the record has borne out the
wl.sdom of the existing arrangement.
EVERY C O M P T R O L L E R has carried out his trusteeship with
the highest fidelity, realizing that the security and the savings of
thousands upon thousands of State and municipal employees were
at stake. Today the .soundness of the System is recognized by every
informed observor. During the past few years, earnings have increased
to the point where there can be an increase in interest credits for
the members now receiving 3 per cent on their contributions. New
benefits are being added by the Legislature at frequent intervals.
W e are now discussing the real possibility of making your Retirement
System the first of its kind in the nation to go on an entirely noncontributory basis. The System Is functioning at top efficiency and
I take great pride in its constant achievements.
Staff Affendanf

Pracficals
Editor, The Leader:
I have recently read so much
complaining from the licensed
practical nurses in your "Letters"
column it is really disgusting.
They spend all their time complaining
about
the
registered
nurses and the staff attendants.
I am taking time to say from
my experience that I find they
think they are a one man army,
the)r only job on a ward being
tieatment room medications and
treatment of cuts and bruises.
Tiiey don't seem to realize that
the best care of our patients
o'.nps from team work and has
to start from the top and go all
the way to the bottom. Everyone
has to be willing to do his part
and to give a little, not keep saying that "it is not my job."
An L.P.N, cares nothing of
morning care, feeding problems,
house cleaning, treatment of personnel, monthly records, ordering
supplies for the ward, keeping of
time sheets and many other duties that make a well-run ward.
When the L.P.N. Is off. the R.N.
is cxected to take her place in the
treatment room, but when the
R N. is off does the practical nurse
assume the responsibility of running the ward?
As an experienced but modest
W H A T , THEN, are the arguments for changing control of the
System?
FIRST, IT IS c l a i m e d that "the administration of the System
should be Integrated into the State's personnel program". I submit
that this is just what we do not want. W e want to keep the identity
of the Retirement System as something belonging primarily to the
employees themselves, not as something "integrated" into a staff
operation. You earn your retirement benefits just as surely as you
earn your paycheck. The Comptroller acts as the banker and trustee
of your benefits, and this is what the relationship should be.
SECOND, IT IS c l a i m e d that the management of the funds
of the System "should be delegated to the proposed Department of
Finance, which, a.s recommended later, would be responsible for the
management and disbursement of State funds generally". But retirement funds are not State funds, as such. They are trust funds, under
the custody and control of the State. Let's keep the distinction,
because It is an important one. The distinction was never clearer
than in the series of transactions in which funds of the Retirement
System were invested to build office buildings for lease to the State
of New York. This required arms-length negotiation to make sure
the transactions were eminently fair to the members of the System.
THE T W O A R G U M E N T S fail when tested against policy and
experience. As a matter of fact, no state retirement system in the
nation is under the control of a civil service agency. Before we make
a change in New York we should be sure something will be gained.
During the past six years I have caused several surveys and investigations to be made to bring new efficiency to your System. This is
an administrative duty which the courts have expressly declared
to be proper and constitutional for the Comptroller to perform
I Hennessey v. Moore, 273 App. Div. 177). At the same time I have
sought the advice of representatives of public employee organizations,
of investment experts and of management technicians. The record
speaks for Itself. I want to continue to serve you and I solicit your
ardent support In this endeavor.
staff attendant let me say "no":
she could not and is not interested
in it. She simply states that this
is not her job. It is the job of the
staff attendant, plus other duties,
such as getting a patient's chart
ready so the doctor can order
medication and listening to complaints from patients as well as
personnel.
Since money seems to be the
main issue ,why not suggest they
take the staff attendant test. It
does require some experience, such

In office less than a year. Mr.
Dennison has brought such sweeping change.? in the County's merit
system that employees are still
blinking in disbelief and pinching
themselves from time to time to
see if all the good things that
have happened recently are really
true.
Under a new charter form of
government vo.trd in the County
last year, Mr. Dennison serves in
• the new pc.st of County Executive.
A Democrat, running for office the
first time, he formerly was a
County highway engineer 25 years
and, later, was a construction and
consulting engineer.
Republicans had been winning
County offices in Suffolk so long,
it is probable that Mr. Dennison
was put on the ballot merely to
fill in the ticket. His winning
shocked Democrats as much as
Republicans because Mr. Dennison
l.s no regular party hack.
In the civil service field, he has
taken « healthy swipe at patronage that wf.s operating on
19th Century levels. The County
was loaded with provisional employees who got their jobs from
local party bosses and stayed away
from such troublesome things as
employee organiation.s to keep

Although his name never appeared on the face of bills introduced in the New York Legislature, Mr. Rosen is the author of
many of the state statutes covering land acquisition. He also is
known as an expert in patent law
and is authorized to practice In
the U.S. Patent Office.
He is married and his wife,

Dennison Report
(Cun'.inupd from Page 7)
that a proposal is a good one, he
doesn't hesitate to go to t)at for
It before the County Board of
Supervisors.
And he usually wins.
The Man
An observor of H. Lee Dennison
In action pointed out that there
is little of the politician showing
in the man when he sets down
to run the County.
When discussing county probleins. Mr. Dennison is liltely to
fldiiPt. If there is .something which
needs his personal attention he
will listen carefully and make his
questions to the point. He doesn't
like lacey introductions to a
matter. If the problem can be
worked out on a lower level he has
the good executive's knack of immediately delegating authority to
his colleagues.
This writer was prc-sent when
an important measure effecting
civil servants was being proposed.
Mr. Dennison listened carefully,
digested the situation quickly and
then turned to his assistant. Anne
Mead. "You can get this in shape,"
he said. •Til take It up when its
ready for the action stage."
^
Little Concern (or I'R
Action would seem to be the
keynote of his personality. He
obviously wants to get things done
and he wants his aides to do the
groundwork first, Some of those
cloie to him worry that his impulsive moves to get things done
often leaves much to be desired
in term.s of public relations.
*•
^
"Lee doesn't seem to care if he
has a good pre.ss or appears a
llkeabb guv, as long as the Job
gets done." said one colleague.
''He doesn't cater much to people's
feelings."
Perhaps the most striking example of th's occurred when someone asked Mr, Dennison what he
felt about the civil service.
'•Not much." was his reply "but
if we are supposed to operate on
the merit
s.vstem in Suffolk
County, that's the way we're going
to operate. We've had too much
official ignoring the laws of this
County,"
The County's public employees
aren't judp,ing their new Supervisor by h'.s iiersonality, however.
They'll take firm action to a pat
on the back any day of the week.
Civil Service in Suffolk County Is
movinj into the 20th Century and
enthusiann abounds that a true
career service is In the making
thi.'1'e—at last
or an equivalent combination of
training and experience.
Application.? and complete Information may be obtained from

Commission, 52 WlldclifT Road,

applications is October 21. 1960.

Survey Sought
On CSEA Members
Part in Community
The Public Relations Committee cf the Civil Service Employees
Association has called for a survey of participation by CSEA
members in community affairs.
The survey was called for in the
C'oniinittee s report waen it/ was
submitted to delegates at the anr.ual meeting of the CSEA at Kiamcsha Lake,
Mr. Potter told delegates:
"Progress is being made in implementing the will of the delegates for added emphasis to the
Ai=.sociation's public relations profcram. The progress may not be as
rapid as your Public Relations
Committee had hoped for, due to
a number of unforeseen circumstances but it is worthy of note
that it is moving ahead,
' A proposed survey of CSEA
irieinbers to determine their participation in community affairs
has been recommended by this
Committee. Such a survey holds
publicity value in the efforts to
make the public more fully aware
of the public p'Ti-'-vno's value to
his community. It is expected t
survey wui oe
in the
new fiscal year,
"Your Public Relations Committee has called for an Association public relations budget withia tlie framework of the President's overall budget for 1980-61,
IXiOking forward to development
of a full scale budget now in
preparation an item of $10,500 to
cjvcr the following costs; $3,000
for six Committee meetings with
Conference leaders to develop effective PR programs at that level;
$1,000 for postage and printing
costs in connection with the community services survey; $1,000 for
preliminaries and script preparation for the proposed CSEA motion picture, largely for television
use; and $5,500 for construction
and staffing of adequate exhibit
for introduction at the New York
Stale Fair and later use at other
P'cbiic gatherings.
State-County Ties
"Strengthening of the StateCounty relationship of tlia Association is held to be a prime requisite in the Internal public relations
program. This Committee recomiKends changes to permit county
chapters to affiliate with the Conferences, Your Public Relations
Committee further recommends
study, possibly by the Constitution
and By-Laws Committee, looking
t(i required affiliation of every
tiiaptcr with its Conference of
juri.sdiction. The study is likewise
asked to include possible redivision
of the Conferences on a more

expansion.

would remain as it is now. That
is, the retirement benefit for service prior to the effective date of
tl'ie new plan would continue to
be computed in the same manner
as in the past; it would consist of
two pa''ts, paid for respectively
l)y employer and employee. The
retirement system would continue
to maintain a record of the contributions he had made in the
past and would continue to credit
interest
thereto.
The
member
would continue to have the privilege of borrowing against such accumulated contributions.
Levitt To Place Bill
For Free State Pensions
The Leader this week continues
Questions and Answers on Comptroller Levitt's plan to submit to
tlie Legislature a bill for free employee pensions. The Q's and A's
were prepared by the Comptroller's office.
What will a non-contributory
pension plan achieve that the
piesent pension system does not?
As mentioned last week, it will
permit the pension plan to be financed at less over-all cost. Of
course, the cost to the employer
will be greater than before, but
the decrease in the employee's
cost will be much more than the
Increase in the employer's cost.
It is a widely held belief, among
economists and other students,
that the ultimate cost of pension
plans is paid by the employer,
whether the employee nominally
pays part of it or not. The reason
Is that, if certain deductions are
taken from an employee's salary,
tiie employer must in the long
run increase his salary to the
point wiiere the take-home pay
will be sufficient to maintain him.
If this view is accepted, then a
net saving to the employer, regardless of how this cost is nominally distributed. The principal
advantage of a non-contributory
plans is, therefore, that it produces a net saving to the employer in the cost of financing
the plan.
Wliile the above reason would
be sufficient for considering a
non-contributory
plan for our
sysnem, tiiere is also another good
reason. Our present system is vei-y
complex and is but little understood by many of our members.
Most of this complexity arises
from the fact that we are a contributory system. All of our benefits consist of two parts, one of
which is financed by contributions from the employer while the
Other is financed by contributions
from employees. The two parts are
separate and distinct and are
oc-mputed on different bases. This
has made it almost impossible for
the individual employee to estimate what his future retirement
allowance might be; it has even
made it difficult for the retirement system to do so. A non-contributory plan would eliminate
this objectionable feature.
A non-contributory plan would
not cost the employees anything.
On the contrary, it would reduce
their present contributions to the
system and thus increase their
take-home pay.
The cost to the employer has
not as yet been fully determined.
However, we have made some preliminary rough estimates relating
to the recently enacted 5% increase
in
take-home-pay
law.
Based on present salaries, we estimate tliat the cost to the State
of New York for the 5% Law
would be of the order of about
$13,000,000 a year. The cost for
making the system wholly noncontributory would add another
$7,000,000 a year. The cost for
each city, county, town or village
tnat participates in the system
wo'.ild depend upon its payroll.
How will a non-contributory
plan affect present members of
our pension system? How will it
affect new members?
If a non-contributory pension
plan should be established, all
members would cease making contributions to the system after the
effective date of the new plan.
All benefits, accrued from such
date, would be financed wholly by
contributions from the employer
(the State and the participating
municipalities).
In the case of new members,
this would result In a very simple
plan No payroll deductions would
be made for contributions to the
system, the system would accumulate no contributions on their
account, there would be no accumulated contributions from which
they could borrow, and they would
find it easy to estimate their f u ture retirement allowances. Their
retirement allowance would be
1/6 of final average salary for
eech year of service. Thus, if the
employee had 30 years of service
credit at the time of retirement,
he would receive V2 of his final
average salary as an annual retirement allowance.
For a present member, the
system would also be greatly simplified. No future deductions for
retirement contributions would be
taken from'his salary, and his retn-ement benefit, for service rendered after the effective date of
the plan, would be computed in
W h a t will a non-contributory exactly the same manner as men8}steni cost; (a) the members, tioned above. With respect to
past service however, the situation
(b) the employers?
GREETING DOCTOR HOCH
W h a t will be the form of the
pension system if the non-contribntory plan is established?
Since the old members would
diminish in number while the new
members would increase year by
year, the system would gradually
change from its present status to
that of the simplified system described above. In the beginning,
the form of the pension system
will be very little different from
what it is at present. But after
about 1 5 years, its character will
have changed greatly. By that
time perhaps 80% to 90% of the
members will be on the new basis
and the new pattern will have
fully emerged. At that time the
system will have lost its present
complexity and the cost of its
operation will have been greatly
reduced.
The reason for the reduction in
cost is that a large part of the
present cost of operating the
system is directly attributable to
the tact that members make contributions. This requires the maintenance of extensive records of
the members' contributions, involved and detailed calculations
of
retirement
allowances
and
other benefits, and has produced
a loan procedure which has become a substantial part of the
total operation. Nearly all of this
would be eliminated If the system
were non-contributory.
Do you know of any public pensl(m system that is on a non-contritiutory basis?
So far as I know, there Is no
actuarlal-resei-ve public pension
system which Is on a non-contributory basis. The State of Delaware
does
have
a
non-contributory
system which Is financed on a
pay-as-you-go basis. So far as I
know, this Is the only public plan
which does not require employees'
contributions.

RETIREMENT PLAN DUE AIR GUARD

States retirement systems. Such
agreements should specify that
the National Guard employees will
be incorporated in State retirement systems on the same basis as
other State employees, effective
in the F Y 1962 or as soon thereafter as possible.
The
agreement
also
should
specify that the Federal Government's payment of the employer's
share of the costs Is contingent
upon final action on the 1962
budget." "National
Guard
employees" in tl.o quoted portion of
the directive refers to technicians
employed under section 709 of
title 3, United States Code, and
paid from Federal funds; It has
no application to service contract
employees or individuals employed
by a State Military Department
or National Guard and paid from
funds other than those appropriated by the Federal Government for technicians.
3. Authority already exists for
the deduction from Federal payrolls and payment to a State retirement system of such contributions as may be required from th«
employee
participating
In
the
State retirement system.
To date, all participating parties see nothing to prevent the
inclusion of these men In the R e tirement System In New York.
Further progress will be reported
hi The Leader.
WHAT'S FOR 1961?
What is the pattern generally
followed in private industry with
respect to non-contributory pension plans?
From many sources we learn
that there is a definite trend
toward non-contributory pension
plans. A recent survey made by
one of our larger banks, which
acts as trustee for many pension
plans, has published a report
which deals in part with this
matter. They state that for the
older plans, which were originally
established
on
a
contributory
basis, there is a definite but slow
trend toward converting them to
a non-contributory basis. However. the plans established in the
last 10 years are nearly all on a
non-contributory basis.
W h y are you recommending- a
non contributory plan?
For all of the reasons stated
above. A non-contributory plan
would cost less to finance and
would cost less for administration.
A non-contributory plan would
also eliminate most of the coniplexity of our present system.
